Not too ugly, not too scheme-y, not too kitschy, but something just right. The Goldilocks of calendars. Which was why I was really happy when one of my fave photographers, Canadian <a href="https://shapeandcolour.wordpress.com/2008/03/19/kristopher-grunert/"><span style="color:#008000;">Kristopher Grunert</span></a>, solved the problem for me with his &#8220;Year Of Light&#8221; 2009 screensaver calendar series.</p>

<p>His work, as always, is stunning: graphic, glowing, geometric, effusive. Like the title suggests, each month is imbued with light and, yet, is dark enough that you can still see icons on your screen. Perfect.</p>
<p>Even more perfect, Grunert is offering it up for free. <a href="http://www.grunertimaging.com/2009screensavercalendar/4EA60E32-B8EB-453A-BB72-7BCD5D10150F.html"><span style="color:#3366ff;">You can get your hands on it here. </span></a></p>
